Size of Antivirus updates

ZoneAlarm Security Suite V 10.0.250
I am surprised by the size of updates. An update after 6 days required 1.1MB upload and 22.8MB download. This is consistent with previous downloads. How come thay are so large? Are these all new viruses since the previous update? I cannot remember V9 having updates of this size.

yes, can be normal even higher size is possible, you have updates each hour or less. So, after 6 days you can have huge data. The same was for 9, actually in 9 files were larger in size. Version 10 has a "lighter" encoding and structure.
